Phoenix Gold amps.....any good??

Benn watching the mrv-f540 amp and ebay for a while and was looking at review when i cam accross the phoenix gold amps
Are they any good?
Looking at the Phoenix Gold Octane-R 8.0:4 125wx4 (4ohm)
or the 9.0:5 125x4 (4ohm) and +400w for a sub
And there about 1.2 the price of a alpine i was looking at...

What do ya'll think???
(hurry please)

I don't know about those Octane-R's though... Wonder if they put out what they say they can? I know the PG Ti's and the Tantrum's were solid amps, but unsure of Octane-R.

My brother has 2-MRV-F540's in his 00SS and they are some sweet amps.

Phoenix Gold amps are good. I would look for older PG amps like the xs or tantrum or Ti series. I have heard they were bought out and new stuff is no longer made in the USA. In my opinion they don't have the power they used to.

The new Xenon(Ti's replacement) amps are underrated and have had some good reviews from people.

The octane series is crap. The older stuff is awesome (M series)
I have the Alpine, and I love it. Fantastic quality, great sound...
